Path-to-the-Beaver-Dam-16x20-wip2-GF-450

16×20″, Acrylics on canvas covered hardboard

This was painted on location in my back yard. There’s a little path beyond the tree line that leads back to a beaver dam and pond — now almost dry due to the fact that we’ve had so little rain this year. This needs some studio work before I can call it finished. I’m going to put it aside for a week or so and then decide how much further I’m going to take it.

One Response to “Almost Done…Path to the Beaver Dam”

Jamie, this is fine as is. You’ve captured the light very nicely in this painting, very realistic looking, the changes from shadows to highlights are not “jarring”, nothing floating.

Unless you want to add a figure-a bird, squirrel, rabbit, dog, cat 🙂 etc., it looks very well done.

Something to say?
